Abstract
Seagrasses in Mourilyan Harbour have been monitored annually since 2000 following initial assessments conducted between 1993 and 1996. Each year a subset of 5 seagrass meadows (annual monitoring meadows) representing the range of different seagrass community types found in Mourilyan Harbour are assessed for changes in biomass, aerial coverage and species composition. These indicators are used to develop a seagrass condition index (see section 2.5.1 of this report for further details). This report also includes an extended survey encompassing all seagrasses within the harbour to capture the health and condition of the whole system.
